This innovative program provides practice with understanding various questions: who, what, when, where, why, and how. Questions are either written or spoken in an Australian voice. So it would speak the question “Why is she going?” and the patient chooses the correct answer (“To get milk”). Or the patient can just read the question.
This program was developed based on a program originally developed by Dr. Richard Katz, who has designed numerous programs for aphasia, and published many studies on the effectiveness of computer-assisted aphasia software.
Displays a question and up to 4 answers. Provides nearly unlimited therapy practice, with over 5,000 exercises. Patient reads a question and picks an appropriate answer. (The Out Loud version speaks the question.)
Designed to be used independently by a survivor of stroke or other brain injury.
Appropriate for:
- Understanding Who, What, Where (“Wh”) type words.
- Reading Comprehension
- Auditory Comprehension
